Project task in school project “Sustainable tourism “

Introduction

The pupils went to the tourist office and collected data on the number of guests since the beginning of tourism in Vodice, Croatia (or at least data that was recorded). Then they made linear and bar charts, calculated percentages and analysed the data in heterogeneous groups.

Learning Outcomes

Learning outcomes

The learner will learn about/to:

  • Calculate the percentage and apply a percentage account.
  • Organize and analyse data displayed with diagram relative frequency bar graph.
  • Display data in tabular form and linear and bar graph.

How Does It Work

  1. Go to the tourism office to collect data
  2. Research about tourism in our town
  3. Analyse the data
  4. Make graphs – temperature in tourist season, number of foreign and domestic guests, year with most/least guests and reasons for this, forecast for next tourist season

Why Is It A Good Practice?

Through the activities provided for class, pupils will develop their skills for:

  • Sustainable thinking
  • Applying mathematics in daily life
  • Working in group (peer-to-peer work)

Assessment

Inclusion

Since group work and project tasks are involved, all pupils, including pupils with disabilities, are equally included in all activities. There is a lot of peer-to-peer cooperation and learning from experience with real data.
